We know that we have to m<span>ake a down payment of $1500 and finance the rest of $20000 at a 1.9% interest rate, making equal monthly payments for 5 years. Our first step to solve this problem would be to convert 5 years into months.
1 year = 12 months
12 * 5 = 60 months
Therefore, in 5 years there are 60 months.
Now lets solve this problem step by step.
Subtract the down payment from $20,000
</span>$20000-$1500=$18500
Multiply the remaining number by the interest rate.
$18500 *1.9 = $35150
Divide 35150 by number of months in 5 years (60)
$35150 / 60 = $585
<span>Therefore, you have to pay $585 per month. </span>
Answer:
5/100 = 0.056 sales tax
$12+$26+$125 = $163 total purchase without tax
163*0.056 = 9.128 tax based on how much she bought
$163 + 9.128 = $172.128 total amount she paid (b)
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
we have

Find the inverse function 
step 1
Let
y=f(x)

step 2
Exchanges variables, x for y and y for x

step 3
isolate the variable y



step 4
Let


So they tell you to let x represent the cost of Deandra's sofa. So since Selena's sofa costs 30 dollars LESS than HALF the cost of Deandra's, we know we have to divide by 2 and subtract 30.
The equation would be x/2-30. (B)
